and yes, before anyone chimes in with it, I am aware that yoga and meditation are a thing, and I am already doing them
I do yoga & meditation, I have lowered my caffeine intake, I exercise, I take my vitamins, etc. etc. etc. I also have a therapist, and basically two rabbis at this point, and supportive friends & communities
I am frustrated by medical professionals telling me "you need to reduce stress in your life"

I'm already doing all the stuff you generally get advised to do, thanks
